miXterOB Posted November 4, 2017 #1 Share Posted November 4, 2017 So my PIC and I will be in Aqua class early next month(December) and I'm hoping to get a glimpse at what is currently being offered. I know the breakfast so that's not important but dinners are. Thank you in advance(TIA). BTW...my PIC is allergic to garlic and onions so I can't wait to see how they handle her food. Could be a real tell. Yes we have let them know and will do so again with the maitre'd when we board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NantahalaCruiser Posted November 4, 2017 #3 Share Posted November 4, 2017 Here's some from Oct 16th Equinox cruise Sent from my SM-G930V using Forums mobile app These are not the latest Blu menus - the new menus have the signature cocktails listed on the upper left of the menu.

Rare hcat Posted November 5, 2017 #4 Share Posted November 5, 2017 These are not the latest Blu menus - the new menus have the signature cocktails listed on the upper left of the menu. The new menus were on our Infinity Cruise...late Sept/Oct. They drinks take up alot of space and are pricey,... A few new dishes added each night. A bit of variety but nothing great,. Still alot of game,,...fish was excellent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miXterOB Posted November 5, 2017 Author #5 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Thanks for the effort but I'm not certain we've found a winner yet ... I have seen the new menus with the signature cocktails which are not showing on your post Curleyjane but...I do appreciate the effort. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Miaminice Posted November 5, 2017 #6 Share Posted November 5, 2017 These are not the latest Blu menus - the new menus have the signature cocktails listed on the upper left of the menu. These are the new menus. On our cruise three weeks ago they looked exactly the same. However, these are obviously photos of the menu on display at the entrance. Cocktails are shown on the lower right side. As much as I can recall, the ones handed out at the table look different (same food, of course). You can not only recognize the new menus by the cocktails but by a different order or better by a missing section. The old ones listed Appetizers, Soups & Salats, Salat Entree etc. You can find almost all of the old menus here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare hcat Posted November 5, 2017 #7 Share Posted November 5, 2017 The combined starters section was on our menus when we boarded the Inf...as well as the oversized pricey drinks area on the top left. Waste of Space! On one day mid way thru the cruise, they did not have the dinner menu posted behind the breakfast menu.. We were told it was because of new menu coming, As stated, new menu much the same with a few new offerings.. Not very different or outstanding...on paper . Food and service were very good...much improved over last Oct, same ship, diff staff. You could order from MDR menu as well.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TeaBag Posted November 5, 2017 #12 Share Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) Had both onion soup and escargots at our table last night on Equinox. Edited November 5, 2017 by TeaBag Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hampshirelad Posted November 5, 2017 #13 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Looking at the menus am I right in thinking they have dispensed with the "Soup" course and you are now expected to order a Starter or a Soup ? Menus did not look that impressive from a few years ago. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hampshirelad Posted November 5, 2017 #14 Share Posted November 5, 2017 Should have said Soup and Salad course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare hcat Posted November 5, 2017 #17 Share Posted November 5, 2017 You can pick whatever you want from the starters,..dh prefers soup, I like a salad and we both enjoy an appetizer...pirtions are small so still room for the main course...we usually skip desset and get a specialty coffee instead,,, No idea if drinks were on Premium..,but definitely over classic prices,.. just too many carbs for me!

I MISSED THAT THEY WERE FROM THE SIGN OUTSIDE BLU You can not only recognize the new menus by the cocktails but by a different order or better by a missing section. The old ones listed Appetizers, Soups & Salats, Salat Entree etc. THE STARTERS WERE COMBINED ON OLDER MENUS ON OUR MELLENNIIM CRUISE LAST FALL - BEFORE THE LATEST MENU CHANGES OCCURRED.

NantahalaCruiser Posted November 5, 2017 #20 Share Posted November 5, 2017 What are the prices of the Blu cocktails? Are they included with the Premium package? $12 on our Oct Equinox cruise - so included in Premium and an extra $3.54 with the Classic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Menus did not look that impressive from a few years ago. Thanks They may well have combined the apps, soups & salads into one section in an attempt to reduce multiple orders and perhaps some waste, but they are still pleased to serve you as many starters as you wish. I had escargot every night and usually another app, plus a soup or salad - but I could have had both Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordonJasmine Posted November 6, 2017 #25 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Just returned from Equinox sailing and was SO GLAD to see that Blu had the vegetarian menu available. In May I was told it was not and had a hard time although Joe, our wonderful waiter, did bring me items from the MDR to put together a meal. The vegetarian menu made it so much easier!
